Due to the expansion of sportscar racing in 2012, Dunlop Motorsport has a requirement for trackside service engineers to work with our partner teams at race and development testing events.

The positions will involve being the first point of contact with a team and performing the following tasks

<LI> Being responsible for the team’s tyre allocation
<LI> Taking tyre temperatures at all pit stops
<LI> Measuring tyres after sessions (wear rates, etc)
<LI> Recording data, entering it into a common database and generating reports
<LI> Liasing with the team race engineer and Dunlop development engineer to ensure that the setup and tyre selection are appropriate for the conditions
<LI> Data analysis (Motec i2, Pi Toolbox, etc) in conjunction with Dunlop’s Vehicle Dynamics Partner

The positions will be a fixed contract of 1000 hours, and will be track based apart from 2-days of training, which will be carried out at Dunlop Motorsport or other convenient location. It will also involve world-wide travel (often at short notice) and 24 hour races.

The candidate needs to have good communication skills, and be able to confidently take responsibility for a safety and performance critical component of a race car with minimal supervision.

Previous Motorsport experience is desirable, but detailed tyre knowledge is not essential, as training will be provided.

Interested parties should contact me directly for a full job description at: ben_michell – at – goodyear.com

We will consider candidates in the first week of the new year.

Regards,

Ben
